Written by:E. Coley[00:00:02]
It a ring inna me ears it a ring[00:00:08]
It a ring inna me ears it a ring[00:00:11]
Now each and everyday we hear poor people crying[00:00:13]
Cannot feed di elders cannot feed di suckling[00:00:16]
Me fadda cyaan buy a phensic if mi head is hurting[00:00:19]
Now living in Jamaica is a wonderful thing[00:00:22]
Lot of food and water when di sun is shining[00:00:24]
But all over di world people is suffering[00:00:27]
They don't know where to turn to make a living[00:00:30]
Ambitious we Hafiz live pon hustlin[00:00:32]
We nah turn a thief we prefer do some sellin'[00:00:35]
Seller out there more than buyer but we stil a try a thing[00:00:38]
Now it a ring inna we ears it a ring[00:00:40]
